If you want to take a screenshot of your application or any other UI element, you can use the technique from this blog post.

I am not sure if this is what you asked for. Please give us more details: which control(s) you wish to render and where do you plan on using it?

I think what he needs, it's to render a specific hierarchy of the visual tree

WriteableBitmap.Render supports rendering of any UIElement class. Once you have your bitmap filled, you can extract pixels from it and push it downwards to DirectX.
